Notes: a follow-on from "Had Everything Changed?".

"Do you still hate me?"

Severus resisted the compulsion to kill the conversation, took a breath and replied, "Hate you?  I hate the way your hair gleams gold in the sunlight, I hate the glow in your eyes, I hate the way you smile and how I can't stop thinking about it.  I hate the way I think of you before I go to sleep, and the way I'll wake still thinking of you.  When I take my last breath, I'll be thinking of how much I hate you, Remus Lupin."

Remus stared, astonished.  "Severus," he whispered, and then began kissing him, kissing him as though Severus had confessed to love.
